Yeah, good grainy, out of focus shot that doesn't show what led up to it and the kids' mother....yeah again, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Freedom of the press? What newspaper do you work for?

I don't know what led to the altercation. Looking at the footage the School Resource Officer did use excessive force. The situation could have been handled differently.

The officer's written account of the altercation supports the students contention that he was teasing his sister. Typical kid's stuff - maybe he should be suspended from school - but not arrested and charged with a crime. Use some judgement please!
